The Plasma Pistol is the new starting weapon AND the only weapon in the game.

It's true. They confirmed it in a podcast. I was there when they recorded it. I saw it on the notes. I have friends that work for Bungie.

We are all going to get banned aren't we?

the BR won't be in due to timeline and canon

  • 11.15.2009 1:58 PM PDT

Yes, the plasma pistol is the only weapon. They said it'll take 14 shots to kill, 4 if you overcharge.

Also, melee is removed and you can't jump. You move at 50% speed because of canon.

Aren't you the smart one? It has at least been a Prototype since 2525, this is proven in Contact Harvest. So it may just be in Reach, although I would rather have a M6D...

prototype doesn't always mean cleared for combat use, even now we have prototype laser weaponry but you don't see our army using them do you?

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

But wasn't Contact: Harvest like 30 years before Reach?

In Contact Harvest, Marines, including Sergeant Johnson, used the prototype BRs agaist Brute forces led by Macabus. That was 27 years before The Battle of Reach, they would have a fully operational BR by then.

I'm just a guy like you that plays halo.

I hope the BR is different.

Why are you reading my signature? Who actually opens these things and reads them!

And as always, SEND ME A PM. Please. Or really bad things will happen to you.

I wouldn't mind seeing the BR put in on a few maps. As long as it was only put in sparingly. I'm tired of having 8+ BRs on maps when there is only 8 players. It's a little repetitive.

Yes, but the BR encourages fair gameplay that rewards the team with the most communication, team work, and individual skill.

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

ODST;MYTHIC Screenshot winner! One of the first to get their hands on the mythic map pack.

nvm

That would actually be an improvement after starting with the same lame gun for two games.

And you should be quiet since you have no idea what you're talking about. You can't just erase the whole timeline and story of a game pointlessly so that you can change a few things.
A lot of the community would be extremely annoyed if the canon was rewritten for pointless reasons.

Is no one paying attention? I just proved that it can canonicly (Spelling?) be in Reach.

I do not want the BR in Reach. Go back to 2001, and Halo: CE. We didn't have the BR? And that, in many minds, was the best Halo Game.

Halo 2 introduced the BR, and every other weapon, except for a handful, became obsolete to the noob pwning weapon.
